Hi,
Question from a new subscriber (me). I'm setting up a new ES45 with Tru64
5.1b, patch kit 2 installed. The "su" command is returning a memory fault
message/error when I try to su to any account besides root. Anyone else
seen this and know the cure?
Some samples - works for su root, but not to other accounts, even when in
root to start with...
chrisw@csusa2:..staff/chrisw > su root
Password: (works to root)
chrisw@csusa2:..staff/chrisw > exit
chrisw@csusa2:..staff/chrisw > su - root
Password: (entered wrong password)
Sorry
chrisw@csusa2:..staff/chrisw > su - root
Password: (works to root with -)
Your terminal type is now set to vt220

root@csusa2:/ >
root@csusa2:/ > su banjobsu
Memory fault
root@csusa2:/ > su chrisw
Memory fault
root@csusa2:/ > su - chrisw
Memory fault
root@csusa2:/ > su root (from root, works to su root)
root@csusa2:/ >
(Entries in the sialog show that the command succeeded in all cases (with a
correct password).)
Comments or suggestions appreciated!
